Einstein.
He was a generally great guy and had very progressive social views, so it would be fun to talk to him about the current state of the world.
Also a lot of his theories around relativity and theories of quantum physics have been proven recently. It would be amazing to see his mind be blown when he realises both sides were right and what that means for how a theory of everything needs to look like.
Yeah I’d love to discuss just the world and life with him.
Curie would be fun too.
Keep Newton away from me. And wasn’t hawking on the epstein island?
Everyone but that guy in the bottom right.
What a Bohr…
Tesla :-)
Leonardo to blow his mind and maybe make a time paradox
Tesla to explain to him that he really needs to take some financial advice because it’s not about him, it’s about people using his techniques.
Edison to punch in the face repeatedly for an hour
Probably Einstein, because he seems like an interesting dude beyond his physics. He liked philosophy, for example, and is one of the examples that I invoke when I argue that university level science education should involve more philosophy — Einstein wasn’t an anomaly in this respect, but a good symbol for discussing how the practice of scientists doing philosophy seems to have waned over the 20th century.
He was also pro-socialism, and had sensible takes about how science isn’t a universal solution to stuff, but a specialised tool that is good for some problems but not for others.

With Marie Curie but perhaps via zoom.
I was about to say one of them should be allowed 30h but hell yes
I’ll take Richard Feynman for nine hours please.
I’d ask nikola tesla three times what he thinks about Tesla using his name for an inferior car that shouldn’t even be a thing.
“This guy put my name on his shitty car company??”
The answer is Feynman
Me: So why did you kill the elephant
Edison: AC bad
Why does only “Leonardo” get the first name
Hawking. No chair.
I wanna talk to Isaac Newton about his wizard alchemy hobby
“So, did you ever have any plans to build that helicopter thing you drew?”
“Chi sei? Dove sono? Come sono arrivato qui?”
“Sorry, what?”
You could use a phone to translate what people who speak in modern languages are saying, but I don’t know how well it would translate to and from 15th century Italian.
Alan Turing, the father of modern computer science. I’d also probably s his d because he’s technically a dilf. 🫦
Seeing your answer made me go "oh damn, yeah, I can’t believe I didn’t say Turing in my answer (I chose Einstein), because he would definitely be my choice. I must’ve missed that he was on there. After going back up to check the image, I conclude that you cheated, because Turing wasn’t an option :P
I’ll allow it though, because it’s a good answer
Oh, shoot, I forgot to check the image and went straight into horny goblin mode. Whoops. 😅
